HoMINY BRANCH, Nov. 90. 'S7.

Ground hog" seems to be the bill of
fare with most of our people now.
DR.. Whitlock recently lost one of his
finest mich cows. A vicious hog on his
place wounded her so severely with its
tusk that she had to be killed immedi.
ately.
Miss Bright, lately returned from West
Tennessee, has for the past week or two
been visiting friends on the Branch.
B. NJ, Mead, not long since, made q
flying trip to his old home.
We now have on our road one of the
most substantial bridges in the county. 1t
is built across the Branch just in front of
G. A. Mathes' house.
We are glad to see that W. w. Baxter
has returned from his visit to Morristown.

vice was held in the church Thursday
morning, and in the evening a right royal
supper was served in the College chapel:
they also had a finishing up supper at the
same place Saturday night, realizing in
all between $50 and $50. Said amount
will be invested in a college library.
But the browning event of the week
was the social of Friday night, given by
Miss Annie Bradshaw. Words fail to
adequately express the pleasures of that
occasion. Among the guests we notice,
Misses Lula Roach, Virgie Martin, Ella
Smith, Stella and Lena Mathes, and
Messrs. Baxter, Ross, Quinn and Shoe

q table of delicious refreshments. All

were proportionately thankful" Miss
Annie makes a charming hostess.

How to Reduce Your EXPENSES.

You can do it easily, and you will not
have to deprive yourself of a single COM
fort; on the contrary, you will enjoy life
more than ever. How can you accom-
pllsh this result? Easily; cutdown your
doctors bills. When you lose your ap-
petite, and become bilious and constipa-
ted, and therefore low.spirited, don'trush
off to the family physician for q pre-
scription, or, on the other hand wait until
you are sick abed before doing anything at
all; but just go to the druggists and for
twenty-five cents get a supply of DR..
Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets. Take
them as directed, and our word for it,
your unpleasant symptoms will disappear
as if by magic, you will have no big
doctors bill to pay, and everybody inter
ested Except the doctor, will feel happy.

THE LAND BOOM.
Prices Way up Among the Stars-The
Dangers TO be Avoided.

The wonderful land boom of the past
year has excited very general attention.
1t has not been confined to any one To-
cality, for, as Chauncey M. Depew said,
after a visit TO the west, "At nearly
every one of the trade centres we visited,
we found e%xtravagant and untenable
views of prospective real estate values"
OF course the vast army of men en-
gagged, in one way or another in these
enterprises, were 10th to believe their
views either %extravagant or ~untenable.
Both they and Depew are right to a Ger,
tain extent.
Land values have rapidly and perma.
nently increased in this country in the
last fifty years. This is especially no.
ticeable in the jumping" west, along
the line of new railroads.
Thousands of new cities have sprung
up, with a growth perfectly astonishing,
and great fortunes have been made in
real estate.
Land values must continue 10 increase
generally, because the available area of
land in the country is so small as to
render inevitable its entire absorption in q
few years.
One hundred years from now, at the
present rate of increase, our population
will be 400 to the sqaure mile-twice as
many as in the largest European nations.
To be a safe Spectator, it is necessary
to study cause and effect, as the proprie-
tors of Warmers safe cure did in prepar-
ing their remedy. Its success is great
because 1t reaches the cause of disease.
Every drop of blood coursing through
the system passes through the kindeys.
II they are in sound working order, the
blood is purified; if deranged, poison,
that should be eliminated, is carried
through the blood channels to every
part of the system, The poison attacks
the weak points, and so come the long
list of resulting ailments. Remedy the
cause, put the purifying organs in health,
and the whole system becomes healthy.
There must be a solid basis for a land
boom, however, or it will inevitably re.
suit In a crash, entailing great losses and
subsequent injurious depression.
Two thousand dollars per front foot for
land in some cities might be a judicious
investment, in others, very indiscreet.
1t is wise to make investments of a char
acter indicating a permanent, if slower,
growth and increase of value.

to Hawkins county.

against nearly every one arrested a true

hawkins county, for whisky selling with
out license.
While in Hawkins county I saw some
very large swine which were under the
process of fattening. The most of these
hogs, however, were raised in Kentucky,
near the Ohio river.
The Tennessee & Ohio r. r. Company,

The town of Rogersville is building up

Hawkins county is tolerably well rep
resented by religious denominations, not
even excepting the Mormons, who call
themselves "The Church of Jesus Christ
Of Latter Day Saints" They have two
communities in that county, one in Ter

BRICKER's REPUBLIC.

County Superintendent of Public In
struction, Mead, was on an official tour
among the public schools of this region
recently. Upon the whole he was favor
ably impressed with the character of the
work being done.
S. d. Stuart, Esq, with the family of
DR.. ]. G.. Stuart, of Cherokee, paid the
Republic a visit recently. The Squire
was born, raised and lived many years in
this locality.
The tobacco farmers seem well salts
fled with the quality and quantity of the
crop this year. They have had excep-
%tionally good luck in handling it.
Some of our citizens are getting excited
over the election for magistrates, and are
nominating their candidates thus far in
advance.
S. W. Beasley will resume merchan-
dizing in a few days at Brownsboro. He
knows how to handle goods safely and
secure good customers.
The infant son of Hiram Sexton, the
little midget to whom we referred two
weeks ago, is dead.
Two athletes of the Republic engaged
in a Singing match last week. Neither
one makes a living in this way, but they
showed that they are "up to the snuff"
in matters pugilistic. They pummeled
each other in regular prize ring style,
and decorated their respective orbs in
mourning. 1t was al even draw.
Fire has been raging in the mountains
several days. They present a weird, sub
lime spectacle. BY day clouds Of smoke
heave up their murky masses to the ze-
NTH %obscuring the sun. By night, their
sable robes are hemmed and embroidered
with flaming serpents, and prominent
heights with their blazing crowns present
the appearance of active volcanoes.
Thanksgiving passed without any OBJ.
servance on the part of our people.
Corn buyers are paying 40 cents a
bushel cash; some holders are asking 80.

They Must Have One.

Charley Horosby, Half Moon Island
Tenn. I received your premium knife
a few days ago and am we'll pleased with
it. 1t is the very knife that farmers
need; if they want to shave they can dc
so without the expense of buying a razor.
If they want to mark and trim stock it is
the very knife they need. And for
trimming small fruit trees, and cutting
the water sprouts from the large trees,
it is the knife for that. l have shown II
to several persons, and they say they
must have one; so you may look for more
subscribers for the Chattanooga Weekly
Times, and for those fellows who sit
around on goods boxes and white and
wear out the seat of their pants, they
ought to have the knife by all means, Il
cuts so nicely.

The Western Settlers Chosen Specific.

With every advance of emigration into
the far West, a new demand is created
for Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Newly
peopled regions are frequently less salu-
brious than older settled localities, on
account of the miasma which rises from
recently cleared land, particularly along
the banks of rivers that are subject to
freshets. The agricultural or mining emf
grant soon learns, when he does not
already know, that the Bitters afford the
only sure protection against malaria, and
those disorders of the stomach, liver
and bowels, to which climate changes,
exposure, and un~accustomed or un-
healthy water or diet subject him. Con-
sequcntly. he places an estimate upon
this great household specific and pre-
ventive commensurate with its intrinsic
merits, and is careful to keep on hand a
restorative and promoter of health so i'm
plicitly to be relied upon In time of need.

Two Fires.

On Friday night last, at about 8 o'clock,
fire was discovered in the dwelling occu-
pied by Mrs. L, B. Stephenson, and the
Misses A. L, and S. NJ, Sparks, located
in the southern part of tie town, 1t was
but a few moments after the alarm was
given until a large crowd had assembled
and every effort was being made to
qucnch the flames. They proved the
stronger, however, and the building was
totally destroyed. Such of the personal
property as was in the lower rooms was
saved, but very little of that which was
in the upper story.
The ladies above mentioned found
shelter with their brother, Mr.. VIM.
Sparks, at whose house they are still So
journing. This was a very disastrous con
flagration for them, as 1t robbed them of
everything they possessed. We are pleas.
ed to state, however, that the matter has
been taken in hand by some of our chart
tably disposed citizens and a sufficient
sum of money guaranteed to place a new
home on the site of the old one, and steps
will be taken to that effect Immediately.
Until such time rs their new home shall
be ready for occupancy their comfort
will be looked after at their brothers.
house.
On Sunday night about half.past nine
o'clock fire was discovered in the old
building situated in the rear of the court
house, and occupied by Mr.. John II.
Naff, the tailor. The fire when first dis
covered was running up along the brick
chimney on the eastern end of the house,
and just above the building occupied by
Mr.. RUDE Yarber as a cobbler shop. As
this property is in very close proximity
70 the Washington House, much fear
was entertained lest that property should
also be destroyed, as it was very soon
evident that the ones on fire could not be
saved. Fortunately a light rain fall set
in just about this time, and by tearing
down the cobbler shop and keeping that
portion of the roof of the hotel nearest
the fire free from sparks, the danger was
averted.
The greater portion of the household
furniture belonging to Mr.. Naff was
saved, and Yarber succeeded in getting
out all of his working materials. The
proprietors of the Washington House had
some little damage done to their furniture
by the rain, it being at first considered
advisable to carry out as much as posi-.
BILE. We understand there was no insur-
ance on the house occupied by Mr.. Naff;
it was owned by John L. Blair.
